    Ataxia is the predominant clinical manifestation of cerebellar atrophy. Patients are unsteady, shaky, and have difficulty standing on their feet, and are generally unable to stand on one leg; Stagger gait, legs apart when walking, swaying from side to side, both upper limbs flexed and stretched forward as if about to fall; .

    Ataxia refers to a disorder of coordination of movement with normal muscle strength.

    Disturbance of the amplitude and coordination of voluntary movements of the limbs, and inability to maintain body posture and balance.

    However, it does not include coordination impairment in mild limb paralysis, voluntary movement deviation due to ophthalmoplegia, difficulty in voluntary movement due to visual impairment, and apraxia due to cerebral lesions.

    Depending on the location of the lesion, ataxia can be divided into four types: deep sensory impairment ataxia; cerebellar ataxia; vestibular labyrinthine ataxia; Cerebral ataxia. The commonly known as "ataxia" refers to cerebellar ataxia.

    Irregularities in the speed, rhythm, amplitude, and strength of voluntary movements, i.e., coordination disorders, may be accompanied by hypotonia, eye movement disorders, and speech disorders.

    Neurological ataxia is a disorder of the nervous system, and ataxia is a disorder of the movement that is impaired with normal muscle strength. The amplitude and coordination of voluntary limb movements are disturbed, and the inability to maintain body posture and balance seriously endangers the normal life of the patient.

    The main symptoms are:

    1. Change of posture and gait: worm lesions cause trunk ataxia, unsteady standing, staggering gait, feet far apart when walking, shaking, and even difficult to sit firmly in severe cases, the upper vermiper is damaged and falls forward, the lower vermith is damaged and falls backwards, and the ataxia of the upper limbs is not obvious. Cerebellar hemisphere lesions deviate or tilt toward the affected side when walking.

    2. Speech disorder: due to the ataxia of articulatory muscles such as the lips, tongue, and larynx, the speech is slow and slurred, and the voice is intermittent, stuttered or explosive, showing poetic or explosive language.

    3. Hypotonia: pendulum-like tendon reflexes can be seen, which can be seen in acute cerebellar lesions.

    4. Ocular movement disorders: coarse ataxia nystagmus occurs in ocular motor muscle ataxia, especially when the eyes swing back and forth when the vestibular contact is involved, and occasionally downbeat nystagmus, ** nystagmus, etc.

    5. Nystagmus and ocular motility disorders:

    Nystagmus is also more common in patients with IAS, and its pathological mechanism is due to damage to the vestibular nucleus, cerebellum, and fibers connecting the vestibular and cerebellum.

    Supranuclear, nuclear, and peripheral ophthalmoplegia and other ocular movement disorders can be seen in patients with IAS, among which supranuclear ophthalmoplegia or fixation paralysis, rapid and slow eye movements, and difficulty in seeing upwards are more common.

    Exophthalmos can be seen in some patients with SCA-3 MJD, and some believe that this is not a true exophthalmo, but rather that the orbital muscles of patients with SCA-3 MJD are atrophied, making the eyeball relatively prominent.

    6. Optic neuropathy: primary optic nerve atrophy can be seen in IAS such as ADCAI, HSP, FRDA, AT, Refsum syndrome, etc., and retinitis pigmentosa (macular degeneration) can be seen in Refsum syndrome and Bassen-Kornz

    Unsteady walking will bring a lot of inconvenience to your life and work, the specific reasons are mainly when the spinal cord, brainstem, vestibule, cerebellum and cerebral cortex lesions, resulting in reflexes can not be coordinated or muscle lesions, it will lead to unstable gait, or nervous system problems and kidney deficiency in the body, such as qi deficiency and blood deficiency and so on will easily lead to unstable walking. Thirdly, there are deformities of the bones, bones and branches, joints, muscles, blood vessels, and subcutaneous tissues, which may also cause unsteady walking. Therefore, there is unsteady walking, not necessarily cerebellar atrophy, or even ataxia, there are many other diseases that will cause unsteady walking, such as cerebral infarction, Parkinson's, spinal cord and even peripheral nerve diseases, must be fully physical, specialist physical examination is very important, some doctors ignore the neurological examination, direct examination, this is obviously not right, in fact, after the detailed physical examination, basically the positioning has a certain judgment of Liang.

    If the diagnosis of cerebellar atrophy is early, cerebellar atrophy is a degenerative disease, if the initial stage is not controlled in time, the disease slowly develops to the middle and late stages, not only is it difficult, but also has a certain burden on the patient's economic affordability, so once the examination is confirmed to be cerebellar atrophy, it must be controlled in time.

    There are many reasons for unsteady walking, including different gaits. Spastic hemiplegic gait is common in stroke sequelae. Spastic paraplegic gait, common in children with spinal cord injury and cerebral palsy.

    Apraxia gait is common in bilateral frontal lobe lesions, such as normal pressure hydrocephalus, progressive dementia, etc. Small gait is common in frontal cortex or white matter lesions, but frontotemporal dementia should be noted, and Parkinson's disease may also be present. Cerebellar ataxia gait due to cerebellar hemisphere lesions.

    A drunken gait is common with alcoholism or barbiturates. Sensory ataxia gait is common in subacute spinal cord wide-grip combined degeneration, tabes dorsalis and sensory neuropathy.

    The typical symptoms of ataxia are unsteady walking, swaying and drunk, the most important point is that it is more difficult to go down the stairs than to go up the stairs, slurred speech, fast mouth, choking when eating and drinking, dizziness, especially when turning the corner, dizziness will be aggravated, blurred vision, these are some typical symptoms of ataxia, if you have two of them, it means that ataxia has found you, do not delay to improve in time.

    Western medicine currently lacks a special **** method, telling that this disease cannot be cured, and can only take some nutritional neurohormone drugs or **** to improve symptoms, and these methods have no effect. The use of traditional Chinese medicine Rongjin Xing Yi decoction is suitable for the patient's condition to prescribe**, in order to achieve the medicine to the disease! Early detection, early attention, early recovery!!

    Different combinations of different Chinese herbal medicines are used to match the prescription suitable for each ataxia patient, and the right medicine is prescribed. ** Ataxia patients have been developing their own unique insights for decades. Rong Jin Xing Impotence Tang is not a prescription, Chinese medicine pays attention to one disease for a thousand people, one person for one person.

    If the limbs are damaged externally, the qi and blood will be lost internally, and the camp and health will be incoherent, and the viscera will not be in harmony, indicating that the injury of the human body will inevitably affect the whole, so the overall ** can receive good results1

    Ataxia is not combined with waist and knee soreness, the situation you are talking about is not necessarily ataxia, unsteady walking can be a sensory problem, or muscle weakness, sensory impairment can cause gait instability.

    The reason why our human body can walk smoothly requires the coordination of sensation, vision, movement, and bone and joint.

    Unsteady walking can be caused by cerebral insufficiency, Parkinson's disease, alcohol consumption, or physical incoordination.

    1. Insufficient cerebral blood supply: insufficient cerebral blood supply may be caused by various factors such as atherosclerosis, which will cause dizziness and other phenomena, and in severe cases, there may be unsteady walking;

    2. Parkinson's: Parkinson's may be caused by factors such as aging, which will lead to abnormalities in the nervous system, which will cause resting tremor, affect normal walking, and may also cause cognitive impairment;

    3. Drinking: If you drink a lot of alcohol, it may lead to nerve paralysis and balance dysfunction, so it will cause unsteady walking or falling;

    4. Physical incoordination: When children just learn to walk, their body coordination is not very good, so there will be unstable walking and falling, which is a normal phenomenon, and will soon improve with the development of the body.

    The first is a change in posture and gait, which can appear such as standing, staggering, etc.

    The second is a disorder of voluntary movement coordination, the upper limbs are heavier, and the tremor becomes more obvious when the movement is closer to the target.

    Thirdly, there is a speech disorder, where speech is slow, slurred, and the voice is intermittent.

    Fourth, there is eye movement disorder, and gross ataxia nystagmus occurs in eye motor muscle ataxia.

    Fifth, a decrease in muscle tone may be present, with a pendulum-like tendon reflex seen in acute cerebellar attendant lesions.

    Sixth, ataxia is observed through the patient's daily living movements, such as unsteady walking, staggering gait, inflexible movements, legs wide apart when walking, and inability to walk in a straight line when adult patients walk.

    Seventh, unsteady standing, leaning forward or shaking from side to side, when standing on tiptoe or heel, the shaking is more prominent, and easy to fall is often the patient's early complaint.

Dizziness and unsteady walking may lead to cerebellar infarction, blood pressure checks, and neurological examinations are required. Determine whether the muscle strength on both sides is normal, once there is hemilimb weakness and numbness, it may be acute ischemic cerebrovascular disease, or cerebellar infarction. The initial diagnosis can be made by brain MRI and brain CT examination, and this phenomenon needs to be examined by neurology, and finally confirmed by auxiliary examination**. >>>More
